The Investment Outfit that Dumped Ceres Cost Me a Packet (on Paper). But It Does Seem to be On the Ball

2020-08-05 08:15:32

Hello, Share Takers. This old punter is rather miffed with an investment company called IP Group (IPO). It raised £52.4 million by selling a shedload of shares in Ceres Power (CWR), which is one of the biggest plays in my bag. This sale caused a minor crash in the Ceres share price. Instead of owning 5.4% of Ceres, IP Group now has only 0.2% of the green power company. So who is this big investor, IP?...

EXCLUSIVE: Damning New report IP Group at 62p, true NAV 40p, target price 28p ahead of bailout placing

2019-10-25 11:56:38

Neil Woodford may have dumped his shares in IP Group (IPO) at 53p a few weeks ago but he collaborated closely with the company and its fortunes are in many ways tied into the scandal involving the man the Mail on Sunday, until recently, called Britain’s Buffett about once a fortnight. IP shares now trade at 62p but what are they worth? I commissioned resting fund manager “The Badger” who previously explained why, irrespective of who manages it, WPCT is worth only 3p a share, to produce a report. His  work is below.

New Big Short Dossier - are Neil Woodford's pals at IP Group running out of money & its opaque accounts

2019-06-18 11:25:31

In a bearcast last Thursday I discussed the complex relationships between IP Group (IPO) and disgraced Neil Woodford. They stink and IP, at 74p capitalised at £784 million, will be dragged into this scandal and that alone makes it a toxic investment. But there is a bigger reason why this company is a compelling short...

IP Group – is there a read-across to Neil Woodford?

2019-04-14 12:21:02

Fully-listed IP Group (IPO) is an investment company which throws money at early-stage companies. At the last count (28 Feb 2019) Woodford’s Equity Income Fund (EIF) was 3% invested. The remit sounds fairly close to that of WPCT – and many companies are indeed the same, as pointed out in previous ShareProphets articles.

IP Group - surely the shares are a sell...

The Communications Director for IP Group (IPO) is a former workmate and all round superstar Ms Liz Vaughan Adams, aka Lizard. So Lizard,  I'm sorry to be writing this but I picked this up on the broker wires this morning and I cannot disagree with this sell/go short thesis.  

Neil Woodford & his Related party pals at IP Group - another damning note from JCap

2018-02-07 01:35:32

I am really warming to analyst Anne Stevenson-Yang of JCap whose latest note on Neil Woodfords pals at IP Group (IPO) "Some Companies deserve to die" is a stormer. And she cites the great work done by Shareprophet (sic) in her report.

IP Group - a disaster waiting to happen: One for the Bankers

2017-12-18 07:58:20

US based JCap has published a devastating report on IP Group (IPO) a company heavily backed by Britain's most conceited fund manager Neil "Nomates" Woodford. It reckons that the shares could halve or it could be far worse.
